Check Point vs Palo Alto Networks

Next-gen firewalls and hybrid-mesh network security. Counts are scoped to this segment and the selected published-date window. Palo Alto Networks carries 5.0× the disclosed CVE volume of Check Point. Volume reflects disclosure practice and install base as much as code quality — read it with the severity mix. Sourced from the NIST NVD; lower counts indicate a smaller disclosed vulnerability surface — not necessarily lower risk.
